Seven years in, JEM’s Connection Point program includes multiple tracks to foster a personal relationship with the Rebbe for each child.

Hundreds of boys and girls in schools around the world are experiencing a boost in their personal connection to the Rebbe through the popular and expanding Connection Point program. The program gives children the opportunity to experience a children’s rally in 770 and learn directly from the Rebbe, thereby fostering their own personal Hiskashrus. Mrs. Chaya Stern of LEC in Miami said: “I appreciate Connection Point. It achieves exactly what I aim to do with my students – give them an opportunity to hear directly from the Rebbe, expose them to what life with the Rebbe is like, and provide an opportunity to strengthen their Hiskashrus”.

An important addition to the familiar Connection Point Flagship program is the all-new Junior Track, which is specially made to bring the Rebbe’s rallies to children as young as fourth and fifth grade. Shorter excerpts of Sichos are introduced to the kids in an exciting format by other young children like themselves.

“The upgraded style of Connection Point content, with two tiers tailored to the student’s age and level, is very appreciated,” said Rabbi Evers, principal at Oholei Torah, whose students are part of the new Junior track. “The children have been receiving the Sichos well, helpfully prefaced with a clear introduction that allows them to truly connect with the Rebbe’s words. Summaries, questions, and take-home sheets make this personal for them.”

The Foundation Films series is another groundbreaking initiative, providing fresh and highly engaging films that teach children about the Rebbe, Yoma Depagra, and Darkei Hachasidus on their level. These masterful productions, produced monthly, are of high quality and rich in educational content.

“I’m extremely impressed with the Connection Point Foundation program, it’s very well done. The kids were all really engaged throughout the whole video and learn so many basics about being a Chosid of the Rebbe,” said Rabbi Mendel Weinbaum, teacher at Sacramento Jewish Academy.

For every child, at every level, Connection Point continues to provide a deep-rooted connection to the Rebbe. It allows every child to personally experience the love and connection the Rebbe displayed at every opportunity.
